Incorrectly calculating PA income tax

Hi!

Turbotax appears to be incorrectly calculating my Pennsylvania income tax due. My taxable income is showing as $0, despite having entered W-2 wages in the federal section of my return. I think it has incorrectly copied over my federal return information to my state return.

Every time I click the button to start over the PA state return, I'm told "PA return already started" and it will not attempt to transfer over my federal tax information to the state return. This means re-entering my W-2 on my federal return has no impact on this issue.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? I'd really appreciate some help please!

Thanks!

Please review your entries in the My Info section to make sure you entered state residency. Another option is to delete the W-2 and renter it to see if that resolves the issue. Lastly, if that doesn't resolve the issue you can try to delete the state and add it again. Please see How do I delete my state return in TurboTax Online? for directions.
